Roof Rats in the Attic? Here's How to Get Them Out

That scratching sound in the ceiling at night is usually one thing in Southern California: roof rats. They're excellent climbers and your attic is prime real estate.

Signs you have them

• ✓Scratching or scurrying noises after dark
• ✓Droppings in the attic, garage, or along walls
• ✓Gnaw marks on wires, wood, or food packaging
• ✓Greasy rub marks along travel routes

Why it's worth acting fast

Rats chew electrical wiring (a fire risk), contaminate insulation, and reproduce quickly. A small problem becomes an infestation in weeks.

How removal works

Effective rodent control is about exclusion, not just traps. We find and seal every entry point, remove the active population, and help you prevent re-entry. Poison alone leaves dead rodents in your walls, we do it the right way.
